Sally Larkins - Remedial Massage Therapist

Welcome to Sally Larkins - Remedial Massage Therapist, located in Ormeau, Vaughan Drive, 3. Our establishment is a point of interest in Australia, offering specialized remedial massage services.

Remedial massage is a treatment modality that focuses on specific therapeutic effects, rather than general ones. Our skilled therapists manipulate the soft tissues of the body using various techniques such as deep tissue, sports, relaxation, stretching, mobilizing, trigger point therapy, myofascial releasing, and deep tissue releasing. Each session is tailored to the individual needs and injuries of our clients.

The healing process begins at the cellular level with remedial massage, aiding soft tissue repair, restoring functional integrity, and increasing mobility. It is particularly effective in treating chronic muscular-skeletal imbalances, strains, sprains, and any injury where the skin is intact. By removing blockages and scar tissue left after injury, it speeds up recovery and encourages more complete healing. Remedial massage is also beneficial for conditions caused by lifestyle factors, such as repetitive strain injury and back pain, making it an excellent way to maintain overall health and mobility.

In addition to remedial massage, we also offer relaxation massage, which has a general therapeutic effect. This type of massage consists of slow rhythmic techniques that manipulate the superficial and slightly deeper layers of muscle. It promotes relaxation and well-being, loosening tight muscles and relieving tension. Relaxation massage works on both a physical and mental level, providing a truly rejuvenating experience. It is also a perfect gift idea for family members or friends.

For those looking for a gentle and detoxifying massage, we provide lymphatic massage. This technique uses light pressure, rhythmic strokes, and pumping movements towards the direction of the lymph nodes. By stimulating the lymph's circulation, this massage helps speed up the removal of waste from the body. Lymphatic massage can be beneficial for stress, detoxification, chronic fatigue, weight problems, arthritis, improving circulation, reducing fluid retention, improving immunity, pain relief, and overall well-being.

We also offer cupping therapy, where suction is created on the skin via a suction cup to promote healing and improve blood and lymphatic circulation. Our cupping treatments include myofascial release techniques, sliding, gliding movements, and some massage.

For expectant mothers, we have a Pregnancy Table Top for greater comfort during massage sessions. We also offer a Pregnancy Massage Loyalty Card, where the 6th visit is free. This card can be used to help the body recover after giving birth, as long as it has been started during pregnancy. A Pregnancy Massage gift voucher is a perfect Baby Shower gift and can be used towards the pregnancy loyalty card.

In addition to our massage services, we offer Bach Flower Essences, which are all-natural remedies that work on the emotional and mental state, having a positive effect on the physical state as well. These essences help balance emotions, and a consultation is needed to determine the appropriate remedies for each individual. A personalized mix is then made up for the client to take home. Bach Flower Remedies have many uses, including stress relief, anxiety management, sleep improvement, mood swings, mild depression, ADD, ADHD, phobias, nightmares, tantrums, coping with change, grief, and much more.
